Sunny Well being & Health Compact Adjustable Rowing Machine with 12 Ranges of Resistance for Full Physique Exercises and Non-compulsory Free SunnyFit App Enhanced Connectivity

Must Buy!
I received the package today at 2:09 pm. I ripped it out of the box and was momentarily confused. On first glance it looked almost entirely assembled. After ripping open the plastic, I noticed it needed 3 things- handle bar, connecting the arm to the hydraulic and releasing the back bar. It was such a simple operation. There was no crazy fluff with the packaging so clean up was a breeze. I immediately hopped on and was impressed. I went slowly and did 5 minutes in my living room. I then moved it outside, it is SO light. I can carry one handed if I wanted to. It fits nicely in the space I set aside. The monitor is incredibly easy to use and to watch while working out. I noticed some other reviews that said it was complicated. I’m not sure why someone would feel that way, maybe they have updated it since previous reviews? Either way, I was pleasantly surprised and had no issues. Now, onto the machine’s resistance which seems to be a great debate among other reviewers… Once I moved it outside I adjusted the resistance level from 1 to 3 and did a full 15 minutes. I did experience some change in the resistance towards the end but I realized that I had shortened my strokes as I got faster. Once I corrected my form, the resistance was consistent. So to clarify, I did not experience a loss of resistance. However, how it stands up over time is still a debate. I did not go particularly fast but maintained a steady pace from beginning to end. Another point some reviewers brought up was size, I am 5’4 and 220 lbs. Yes, I’m fluffy lol I had no problems. The seat could use a bit more padding but once I moved forward a little I found the sweet spot. The one *potential* problem I’ve noticed is that the foot rests don’t seem to be very sturdy. At one point I had to adjust my feet because I noticed the fronts were slightly bending the plastic back. Maybe they are meant to have some give? I’m not sure. They felt as if they will be the first thing that needs to be replaced down the road.

Conclusion: Is this a gym quality machine? Nope. Is it functional, practical and worth buying? Yes. This is not something I would recommend to an Olympian but for the average person looking to burn a few calories while watching TV, this is the way to go.
Update as of 3/22/2020, When I wrote the first review, I weighed 220 lbs. I now weigh 154. I’m 14 lbs from my goal weight. The rower still works like a breeze. I use my treadmill and bike for heavy cardio but the rower is still a staple. It is amazing for cross training. The foot rests still haven’t broken, so that is a plus 😂 Still no loss in resistance. Now that I am in better shape, I notice that if I go fast, I can actually slide it across my floor with the momentum. I put it on .5 inch gym flooring and have had no issue since.
My boyfriend who is 5’10, 180 lbs and a hardcore volleyball player is in love with this thing. According to him, it isn’t a true rower but works on his muscular imbalances caused by playing one sport.
I’ve though about upgrading to a more advanced rower but who am I kidding? I’m not a professional and it still does what I purchased it for. No complaints.
On a side note, I made significant lifestyle changes to accomplish my weight loss. When I first started and couldn’t walk more than 5 minutes at a time, this rower was a true challenge but I outgrew it about a month in and started regularly walking. I no longer use it every day, maybe 3-5 times a month for about 25-30 minutes.

Lightweight, compact, and effective rowing machine for a small apartment
This rowing machine is a good fit for my small living room. I use it for low intensity workout while watching TV. Bought “smart” version and like how it looks.
Three modifications I did to make it more minimal and convenient to fold + store vertically on a daily basis:
(1) Skip the smart device holding arm
(2) Use a quick release pin (8mm in diameter, 39mm effective length, Bimini top; see https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07N1JYDJG) to connect the handle bar and the hydraulic resistance column.
(3) Skip the red adjustment knob (not recommended for everyone; try carefully at your own risk)
The 12 levels of hydraulic resistance covers a wide range of intensity. At level 2 I can already feel muscle toning effects from my low intensity workout. Look forward to gradually increasing the resistance.
The machine is not loud at all. I have not needed to increase the volume of my TV while using this machine. The seat slides smoothly back and forth.
I am 5’5″ and slim. The ergonomics of this machine is good enough, not optimal. Thus my 4-star rating. The handle bar is a little higher than what my shoulders prefer. To me the seat also becomes uncomfortable after 15 min. So I just get up and take a quick water break every 10~15 min.
Kudos to Sunny Health & Fitness for this user-friendly, compact, and affordable rowing machine.

This rower is a great workout, inexpensive and a simple piece of fitness equipment!!! Assembly was super easy (one person can do it) as it come pretty much already assembled. It’s light weight, but stays in place while rower is in motion. Fits me perfectly at 5′ 3″ tall. Works your arms, shoulders, upper & lower back, legs and most deffinenly works your abs! I’ve only been using it everyday for a week now, but am very happy with purchase.
